Why not just stay around here and share your wealth with us. If nothing else you could afford to keep us all in the Wine Cellar with you?

You have such a good choice of wines.

You could buy the lounge a nice new server, and maybe even a dedicated hosting contract. Why not get those now while you are waiting for the funds to arrive.

In view of the above spam, it's ironic that the UK Triodos Bank describes itself as a sustainable bank providing ethical savings. And the Triodos Foundation actually does make grants for causes rather more deserving than "your own personal, education and Business development" (or to DaveA!)...

Triodos Bank is a Dutch banking company. It is sincerely committed to 'ethical' banking, but some people in The Netherlands have misgivings about its anthroposophical background.
Best wishes,
Hans

My brain froze while reading the first paragraph of your Wiki link. I had to reboot.

Excellent, that means you will be able to give us all further insight into anthroposophy.

All you need to do is check your junk mail more often, as you would get these same offers if not more of them?

Or your email address that you would provide, could be set to them, as I am sure that the source of these emails would love to send you a few.
